Serving in the local church
What do Churchwardens & parish officers do?
Churchwardens, PCC Secretaries, Treasurers, Parish Safeguarding Officers and other Parochial Church Council (PCC) members are all vital to the running of a church or parish.
Churchwardens are chosen by the parish to be leaders in the life and mission of their church community, working with the vicar and representing the congregation. They have a responsibility to promote unity and peace within the parish, for running the church and caring for the building. PCCs have a key role in promoting mission and are charity trustees of their parish’s resources.
If you believe God may be calling you to become a churchwarden or other PCC member, have a chat with someone already in the role and your vicar.
